  1. Naw I’m an alcoholic.. I’m an idiot.. yes I can wait 6 weeks I can wait a year I can wait 2 years i simply asked a question to see if anyone did it I’m so sorry that i offended anyone this app is the stupidest thing
  2. Yeah I got back and see him in 3 weeks
  3. It hasn’t been a topic with my dr because I know I can’t drink carbonated drinks and we have discussed alcohol because I told him I wasn’t worried about drinking .. I’m 3 weeks out it was just a question I had for people that drank earlier
  4. Oh I apologize I thought that this forum was for that.. and this is only my second day so I guess you can just not reply?
  5. I had pain from the gas they blew me up with .. I had to have help getting out of bed for about 3 days because it literally felt like my gut was being ripped when I moved but it was quick and the pain didn’t last only when I got up.. I was giving pain meds at hospital and stopped them on the second day and haven’t taken any since so the pain is more like discomfort unless u get up.. but it’s quick and it goes away .. incisions are tinder
  6. I tried that like 12 days post op.. i had no problems
  7. Your hair will only fall out if ur not getting enough protein.. I’m 2 weeks out of surgery and I get about 70-90 grams of protein a day
  8. So I had my sleeve on 11-6.. I’ve read a lot of stories on how hard it was to drink water.. how painful the removal of the drain tube was.. I’ve had zero problems drinking water I’ve always loved water and I can drink a glass of water with no problem just take smaller drinks.. soft foods have been a problem .. the biggest thing I wish I knew was that eve tho ur not hungry your mind is still addicted to food and I CRAVED unhealthy food and was not hungry at all.. I had to drink blue Powerade after surgery so if I had a leak it would be in my drain tube it gave me horrible heart burn and caused me to vomit a lot .. I wish I just drank purple Kool aid instead sugar free of course.. an when u get to eat again if u over eat .. it hurts ur mind says eat it up but please please go slow it’s painful if you don’t
  9. Premier protein shakes from Walmart has 30grams of protein per drink .. 7 bucks for a pack of 4.. needs about 90grams of protein depending on weight I was 336lbs and require 90 grams the chocolate is good and the vanilla is good that’s it lol
  10. So how long did everyone wait before they started drinking? I haven’t had any cravings for it but I was a big beer drinker before and I know I can’t have beer for a while because of the carbonation, but I was wondering about liquors. My dr says 6 weeks anyone start sooner than that?
  11. I had my sleeve on 11-06.. i started my puréed foods a little early because I couldn’t take the shakes anymore they were making me nauseas.. anyone else do this? And I’m not hungry but I’m constantly craving food is this my food addiction or did other people strugggle to?
